My brother and I don't get along at all. I am 22 and he is 20. We compete on almost every issue every day since we are in the same program in university and are forced to live in the same home and share a vehicle. He purposefully does things to annoy me and I react very quickly which makes fuels the fire and makes him continue aggrivating me. He is very immature for his age. My parents treat him completely differently than they do me. I am the oldest and they expect much more from me than they do him. Every time I bring up this issue they blame me for us not getting along and think that I need psychiatric help. I think that they need to increase their expectations of him since he is an adult and is basically freeloading off of them. I feel like most of the anger I have towards him is resentment since my parents act like he is the favourite. How can I help this situation without moving out since I can't afford it. thanks

Neither of you are children anymore. You need to man up and stop acting like it. Stop reacting to him. Stop competing. Stop annoying him. Concentrate on your education and trying to be the best YOU can be, not trying to better him.

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.
